Marietta Restaurant Nominated For Best New Restaurant

A Cobb County eatery has made the list of Bon Appétit Magazine’s 50 best new restaurants in America. Up against the likes of a chicken Parm–slinging sandwich shop, Texas barbecue goodness, and a new-school Jewish deli — to name a few — a farm-to-table joint on the Marietta Square has managed to make a name for itself.

Spring, located at 83 Church St. in Marietta, is being called a top-notch farm-to-table eatery that delivers that downhome Southern-feel-good food with a modern sensibility. Run by Kennesaw native Brian So (formerly of Sobban in Decatur), the eatery offers a refreshing culinary experience amid a simple setting.

So, what’s a menu fave? Well, the hearty eaters at Bon Appétit had this to say: “House-made butter and sourdough bread; chicken liver paté on toast with blueberry jam, pickled mustard seed, and raw pistachio —basically an advanced PB&J — and whatever produce-driven small plates are in season. Oh, and a beer from the restaurant’s drink menu, which features Georgian brews almost exclusively.”

Winners were whittled down to 10 in August.
